  • Rhode Home Rescue is an amazing shelter! My fiancé and I got our wonderful dog, Sally, from them back in August. Being my first dog, I had a ton of questions which Dina was all too happy to answer. She also put be in contact with Linda our dog trainer who did a great job helping us train her. I am so grateful for all Rhode Home Rescue did in getting me Sally!

  • I am so happy to have adopted Siri. We love her so much! Everyone at the rescue is professional and caring towards the animals and the people who want to adopt. Thank you to the people that helped us through the adoption process and the family who fostered our little girl.

  • I worked with this rescue during the Super Dog Adoption day and they were beyond amazing. They do so much to help save a lot of furry friends and find them forever homes! I would recommend adopting from them to any one of my friends or family! 🙂

  • positive review  I attended one of their local adoption events just to lend an extra hand by volunteering and ended up going home with my new best friend unexpectedly ? I highly recommend them as they truly do care for every animal they help. Say hello to my happy and healthy baby Laila! (Originally pixie)

  • positive review  My family adopted from Rhode Home Rescue, and our experience was absolutely wonderful! Throughout the entire application process, the volunteers at the rescue could not have been more helpful. Upon our awaited meeting day, the volunteers as well as the foster family were so extremely kind with the whole process. My family would absolutely recommend this rescue to anyone looking to add a furry addition to their home! Pictured is our first dog, a 5 year old male black lab named Simba. Our newest addition (5 months when we got her, now 8 months old), a female boxer terrier mix named Nala.

  • Volunteering at RHR really helped me make a difference. By giving these pups a good home, I gain experience for when I am going to be a Veterinary Assistant. The best part at each adoption event is knowing their personalities by studying the behaviors and making to friends. 🙂
